Someone will have to correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can temporarily direct request on the old IP address to continue to display the site by using Host headers. Add 2 host header entries pointing to the old IP(www,*), assuming they are both IPs on that server. I don't believe SSL will work correctly for those users though.

We tried that as well but it was a no go. Thanks though. I looked and looked for an answer and I don't think there is one so the only thing to do was change the dns and IIS.

Can you keep the old site running on the old IP address during the changeover for a week or so? That's what I always do that way during the transition there is no danger of a bad request being given to google.

Jack_Hughes nope same server same IIS so I thought and thought about it and feel being on the same server using thre same IIS there really shouldn't be issues. It has been a week now looks like all is well no errors in tools.
